If you’re self-employed, you already know the struggle—juggling your business, taxes, and expenses often means putting your own health on the back burner. But too often, annual medical check-ups get overlooked because they seem like an added expense or hassle—especially if you don’t have an HMO. But preventive health care, like Annual Physical Exams (APE) and Executive Check-Ups (ECU), is one of the smartest investments a self-employed individual can make.
The reality? While there are HMO providers for freelancers and entrepreneurs, they can be expensive, complicated, and often focus more on hospitalization coverage rather than preventive care like Annual Physical Exams (APE) or Executive Check-Ups (ECU)—both of which are essential for maintaining good health and catching issues early.
A Smarter, More Affordable Alternative to Traditional HMOs for Self-Employed Health Needs
At Taxumo, we believe that staying healthy is just as important as staying compliant with your taxes. That’s why we’ve partnered with Shinagawa Diagnostic and Preventive Care to help self-employed individuals access comprehensive Annual Physical Exams (APE) and Executive Check-Ups (ECU)—without the hassle and high cost of traditional HMO plans. These preventive services are ideal for freelancers and self-employed individuals who want to stay on top of their health but may not yet have an HMO.
Why Annual Health Check-Ups Matter (Especially for Self-Employed Individuals)
If you’re your own boss, you’re your most valuable asset.
Yet, many Filipinos delay or skip their annual physical exams, often due to cost concerns or busy schedules. According to the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) and Department of Health data, over 60% of Filipinos have never had a comprehensive health check-up, and a 2019 PhilCare Wellness Index revealed that 56% of Filipino adults avoid seeing a doctor unless they are seriously ill.
The consequences? Studies show that individuals who undergo regular preventive check-ups are more likely to catch illnesses early, improve health outcomes, and reduce overall medical expenses.
For example, the World Health Organization (WHO) reports that early detection through preventive health exams can reduce the risk of major illnesses like heart disease, diabetes, and certain cancers by up to 40%.
